Question

【題目】Animals do many different, amazing things to get through the winter. Some of them migrate. They travel to other places where the weather is warmer or where they can find food.

Many birds migrate in autumn. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large groups. For example, geese(鵝) fly in noisy, “V”-shaped groups. Other kinds of birds fly alone.

Some animals stay active in winter. They must change themselves as the weather changes. Many change their doing or their bodies. For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.

Food is hard to find in winter. Some animals, like mice, collect lots of food in autumn and store it to eat later. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change.

Some animals hibernate for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal’s body temperature drops, and its heartbeat and breathing slow down. It uses very little energy. In autumn, these animals get ready for winter by eating much more food than in summer and storing it as body fat. They use this fat to keep them alive while hibernating.

Water makes good protection for many animals. When the weather gets cold, they move to the bottom of lakes and rivers. There, frogs and many fish hide under rocks or fallen leaves. Cold water holds more oxygen than warm water, and frogs can breathe through their skin.

Every type of insect has its own life cycle and that is the way it grows and changes. Different insects spend the winter in different forms of their lives. Some insects also spend the winter without moving. Some insects spend the winter as pupae（蛹）. Other insects die after laying eggs in autumn. The eggs change into new insects in spring and everything begins all over again.

試題分析：這篇短文介紹了動(dòng)物不同的過(guò)冬方式。例如鵝，以吵鬧的V字型成群遷徙；雪鞋兔子長(zhǎng)著白色的皮毛幫助他們藏在雪里。一些動(dòng)物整個(gè)冬天或部分冬天冬眠。每種類型的昆蟲有它自己的生活循環(huán)，那是它生長(zhǎng)和變化的方式。一些昆蟲冬天變成蛹，其它昆蟲秋天產(chǎn)卵后死掉，在春天的時(shí)候，這些卵變成新的昆蟲，而一切又將(重新/從頭)開始。

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)句意可知?jiǎng)游锊煌�的度過(guò)冬天的令人驚奇的事情。他們中的一些遷移。他們旅行到其他地方的天氣是溫暖的或在哪里可以找到食物，故migrate的意思是遷移，從一個(gè)地方到另一個(gè)地方。故選A

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中Many birds migrate in autumn. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large groups.可知，他們可能在旅行中會(huì)運(yùn)到危險(xiǎn)。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章中For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.

我們可知，雪鞋兔厚厚的白色的皮毛幫助他們度過(guò)冬天。故選D。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通讀全文可知最后一段主要講述的是不同的昆蟲的生長(zhǎng)方式和改變是不同的，可故選B。

【5】主旨大意題。這篇短文主要是講述不同的動(dòng)物是怎么度過(guò)冬天的。故選B
